Challenge Info - 2

Just explaining how pH affects the state of your hair.

The optimum pH balance for hair is between 4.5-5.5

• 0 (strongly acidic) – 14 (strongly alkaline)

• The higher the pH, the more likely the hair is being stripped of its natural essential oils

• Don’t continue to leave conditioner on for extended periods of time. Water begins to replace protein (keratin).

For example: Suave conditioner used for detangling– 6.
